Agree with whats been said here, familairise yourself with basic instruments VORs NDBs ILSs etc

and

also make sure you know how to fly, yes i mean it.

the most common problem people have who do not understand how aeroplanes actually fly.. for example, levelling at FL50 and increasing speed from climb speed 100kts to 150kts, so many people do not check the control column forward so as speed increases lift increases and before you know it you are at FL51. 100ft is not a big deal but instrument flying should be accurate and you should say to yourself i will fly to limits of +/- ZERO.

Above all you will enjoy it hopefully, i LOVE the course.

Goodluck
